About
The Vanilla ball python is colouration and pattern altering morph that can be difficult to tell apart from a Normal ball python and also looks extremely similar to a Fire ball python, with only a few slight variations that can be used to tell the two apart without further breeding.
History
No history yet.
Appearance
Head
The head of the Vanilla ball python is much like the head of a Normal ball python, but with a lighter and more prominent head stamp, which usually consists of three circles close together that is often compared to an upside down Mickey Mouse head.
Body
The “alien heads” of the Vanilla ball python are usually free of markings and “eyes”. The black “puzzle” pattern normally expresses slight blushing in young snakes, but gets brighter and more apparent with age.
Tail
The tail of the Vanilla ball python is similar to that of a Normal ball python, but following the colourations of its body.
